Initially a little place called Pineland, TX (which the natives pronounce (pine-LAND). The population was under a thousand in 1994 when I moved there, and is under a thousand still. The nearest “city” is Jasper, pop 8,000 or so, and 25 miles away.
LOL. The "town" (unincorporated) I grew up in was smaller than that (probably 300 max). The nearest town (New Roads, LA) is just about the same size, and same distance away. The nearby "big city" (Baton Rouge) is about 60 miles away to the SW, though Alexandria is about the same distance to the NW.
What country folks look at is not the distance to a location, but the time it takes to get there. I could get from my little unincorporated village to New Roads in less time than it took me to drive across Baton Rouge to get to similar amenities.
New Roads has hospitals, doctors, nursing homes, excellent restaurants (MANY), and even a Wal-Mart. LOL...the folks there thought they had "really arrived" when Wal-Mart opened a store.
If I didn't have severe allergies, I'd move back there in a heartbeat after retiring. As it is, I'm actually looking at spots in Texas, probably around the Hill Country near San Antonio....my allergies are better in a drier climate than in Louisiana.
